I don't go around saying that Porsches are a pile of dung, but I do know that psychologically I couldn't handle owning one.

Just replace "Porsche" with "Rolex" in the above and it sums it up quite nicely.

All over the world there are Porsche owners who are quietly thanking Dog that Mr Bean has decided against purchasing one.

And a Porsche collecting Rolex Daytona wearing.

I am the anti-watch ... gave 'em all up.

The_Commander · 02-04-2007, 11:58 AM

I saw this in a magazine while sitting at the Dr.'s office.

I don't know why, but I want one.

I have a watch that I have had for about 18 years and I know nothing about it. Maybe some of you guys can help. It looks suspiciously like a
DOXA.

I was told years ago that it was a military issue dive watch. Google searches turn up nothing.

here's an interesting one i saw today for sale on another forum ... a Paris Dakar (I have nothing to do with this sale, just thought it was cool).
